I hope in 20 years when I'm senile ( more senile ) I can look in and judge your generation as being better than ours but you will have many major battles to fight and I truly hope you succeed.
What made NERD's post interesting to me was turning the conversation to a different topic: the next generation.
I don't think it's important to indict or congratulate the current generation, or award "good" and "bad" labels to individuals that participated. Instead, I think it's time to talk about what we're going to do next.
